Blankenship recorded 11 tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's 37-34 overtime win versus the Bills.
EDGE Analysis
Blakenship's tackle total was his best since Week 1 at New England (12), but it was somewhat predictable given he played a whopping 92 defensive snaps in Week 12. Either way, he's been a tackling machine as a defensive back for Philadelphia in his sophomore season, and he's a great IDP option at that position for Week 13 versus the 49ers.

Blankenship (ribs) was listed as a full participant on Philadelphia's practice estimate Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Blankenship was sidelined for Sunday's game versus Miami with an injury to his ribs, but it now looks like he'll be ready to go again in Week 8. He should step back into a starting role at safety at Washington.

Blankenship (ribs) is listed as out for Sunday's game versus the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
Blankenship missed practice all week, and he'll have to sit out at least one game as he recovers from the rib injury he sustained in Week 6 at the Jets. In his place, rookie third-rounder Sydney Brown will likely start at safety Sunday.

Reed (ribs) didn't participate in the Eagles' walkthrough Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Blankenship is still recovering from a ribs injury suffered during Sunday's loss to the Jets. A ribs injury also held the 24-year-old out of the team's Week 2 victory versus the Vikings, and if he's unable to play this week Sydney Brown will start instead.

The X-rays on Blankenship's ribs came back negative Monday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Blankenship has apparently avoided a major injury after exiting Sunday's loss to the Jets in the third quarter. While this comes as positive news, there is still no timetable on Blankenship's return and Terrell Edmunds is now the only healthy safety on Philadelphia's roster.

Blankenship has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Jets due to a rib injury.
EDGE Analysis
Blankenship logged five tackles before heading to the locker room in the third quarter, according to Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia. The exact nature and severity of this issue are still unclear, leaving his availability up in the air for next week's matchup against Miami on Sunday Night Football. In his absence, the Eagles will be left with just one available safety against the Jets, as Sydney Brown (hamstring) was ruled inactive while Justin Evans (knee) is still on IR.
